Cheers!

I recall reading on Tom's Hardware site that there might be a potential issue with life span (or how much data could be stored on these drives before they committed suicide) but looks like Intel later revised the endurance rating by a factor of two (now up to 144TB for the 256Gb version), so probably not an issue for the majority. These are entry level NVMe SSD drives.

How do msi motherboards and their bios compare with asus?

Each retailer only has a certain number of free drives allocated so you may buy the board and not get the drive. OP a link to a retailer would be a good start. Im torn ive saved £750 for CPU, board and Ram which is easily enough for a i7 and a £200 motherboard and 32gb ram my only problem is i think intel are robbing us the new i7 is around £50 more than the older one and the only difference is a 200mhz bump in speed that any idiot can do within 2 seconds. Im waiting for Ryzen before i make the decision but the moneys burning a hole in my pocket, I missed the Asus Hero board last week because im trying to wait and looking back im kicking myself and should of grabbed one at the time.
Ive always had Asus boards even going back to the AMD Athlon 64 from 12 years ago and have always liked the MSI and this is a very nice board but i stick with Asus as ive never had a board go wrong in all that time. At the minute i have a Asus ROG Ranger with a 4690k in it and this rig has been overclocked since day one and i never turn it off its always put into sleep mode and its never missed a beat. Sorry for my life story

as far as i can see the drives are claimed from msi, as a result there would be no point adding any retailer.

my msi board recently went kapuut and took my 4 ddr4 sticks with it. and tried to warranty claim from msi and they wanted me to send it in with my own expense for a refurbished one. In netherland btw. stick to asus or gigabyte.
